Seamark Ranch is a long-term, Christ-centered ministry that serves the needs of abandoned, neglected and/or abused boys and girls by providing a quality, stable Christian home environment. Seamark Ranch is also a resource for children and families in crisis. We see each child as an individual and will work together with the current caregivers in each child’s life to provide the tools and skills necessary to become productive citizens.
The following is a list of guidelines used when considering a child for admission. Note that these represent guidelines, and each candidate will be considered on an individual basis. Seamark’s thorough and careful admission process may take 3 to 4 weeks. Emergency or temporary placements are not accepted. Seamark Ranch encourages private placements. Specific admission questions should be directed to the Director of Childcare Operations by calling the Seamark Ranch Childcare Office at (904) 529-1951.
Girls and Boys 6-16 years old (however, full sibling groups will be given special age consideration). Children of 12 years or older must realize the need/benefit for placement at Seamark and be willing to cooperate with the program.
IQ of 75 or above.
Children with mild emotional and/or behavioral problems. Children with more severe problems will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

No active/current suicidal or homicidal threat, ideation, or behavior.
